A GOOD SIGN,

1t is gratifying to note that the
wild speculative fever which for few
weeks threatened to run into regu.
lar LAND booming" business has
somewhat subsidized. and that bust.
ness men. instead of devoting their
time and money to real estate specu.
latiye operations, are giving their
attention to the actual development
of the industrial interests Of their
section. As we have previously
stated. many of the large land com.
panies organized in the South during
the last few months have solid
foundation for present and future
J prosperity, and it is through their
exertions that very large proportion
of the new enterprises that are being
established there have been secured.
But the great and we'll deserved sue.
cess ofthese companies caused almost
craze for real estate dealings for
awhile. This feverish tendency has
abared without having done any per.
manent harm; in fact, this speculation
did good. IL attracted outside capital
and advanced the price of real estate,
which was too low throughout great
part of the South. Having done this
it has quieted down and left the PEG.
pie of that section in proper frame
OF mind for more vigorous and
determined effort than ever before in
building up their manufacturing inter.
ests. If the real estate speculation
had gone on indefinitely it would
have done harm; as it is, it did good.
1t awakened the people to the vast
possibilities of their country and
stimulated them to new energy; it
permanently lifted the value of pro.
perty over Large areas, and from these
centers of activity will spread influ.
ences that will make the whole South
more prosperous. or course, there
will come renewed speculation at
times, but the tendency to wild boom.
ing has, we believe, been pretty efrec-
tually killed. The South is now
moving steadily and rapidly on to.
warda so lid and enduring prospect
ty, and never before was the outlook
SO bright.-Baltimore Manutac

ture per capita $4,000. Mr.. Barrett
shows by tablse covering the FIVE
years from 1882 to 1856. inclusive.
that the consumption of spirits is
decreasing, while that of beer is in.
creasing, and that there is reduced
use of wine as a beverage.
Mfr. Barrett says the wholesale
cost Of the liquors. for which the re.
tailers receive seven hundred millions,
is not more than three hundred mil.
lion dollars. He makes brief cal.
culation of the cost of liquors as com
pared With That of food, clothing and
shelter, reaching the conclusion that
the American people expend from
twelve to seventeen dollars for the
necessnries named to every dollar
paid out for liquor. Mr.. James A.
Webb, of New York, furnishes q
statement to the effect that only ten
per cent, of the distilled spirits con.
sumcd in this country is used for
medicine and manufacturing purposes,

rage.
From table covering the five
year ending with 1885, it is learned
that the consumption of distilled
spirite per capita has steadily In.
creased in France from "a gallons to
1872 gallons; that it has varied in this
country between one and forty.six
one hundredths in 1885, and one
twenty'four hundrcdths gallons in
1884 and 1885; that the United King.
dom consumes little more than q
gallon PR capita, and that the con.
sumption in Germany has decreased
from one and thirty.two hundredths
in 1881 to one and fourteen humid
redths in 1885. France. during the
same period, increased her wine con.
sumption from eighteen and a.half
to nearly thirty-sevcn gallons. while
this country and the United Kingdom
beginning with less than half gal
Ion per head, show slight falling
Off In the matter of beer consump.
ton during this period, the United
States increased her average from q
little less than ten to a little more
than eleven gallons; the United King.
dom held her own at about thirty
three gallons. and Germany did the
same at about twenty-three gallons.

disposed to ignore completely mat.
